Report
Touched = Siebel Daily Report & Deloitte
Operational Metrics Report & Phone
Application Manual Count
In May, there were 34,032 incoming, 32,458 touched and 37,843 authorized applications
Call Times
• With the renewals and closure notices being sent out, call
times are busiest during Monday and Tuesdays
• The last 10 days of the month are above normal in call
volumes
• The call center has implemented a “Due to high volume,
please call back later” message
– This is meant to let callers know of the call volume and prevent callers from
sitting on hold for hours

Current Goals for Member Services
• 45-day backlog: Currently re-evaluating 45-day backlog and same-day processing goals to ensure goals align with staffing levels.
• Staffing: Current staff level does not meet required processing volumes. Finalizing staffing and operations plans to meet need.
• Training: ONE Refresher training for staff continues through June. Targeted trainings also being developed for processes outside of ONE.
Concerns we have heard
Varying response times on urgent email requests– Our pregnancy, urgent and priority application queues are being worked same
day/next day. Follow-up requests after an application has already been submitted
are one day to three weeks out, depending on the body of work. Requests sent to
the new OHP Pregnancy Requests inbox are being worked within 24 to 48 hours.
Clarification needed on submitting address changes– Operations is working to clarify best, most secure methods for submitting address
changes for members, community partners and CCOs. Clarification will be shared
as soon as it’s available.
Concerns we have heard
Backlog on processing member consent forms
– We have had a backlog with consent forms community partners and assisters
submit, allowing them to assist a member. We are training our new weekend staff
to process these forms, which will greatly reduce our backlog.
• Pregnancy application processing times
– Goals vs. current experience
– IRMS
– RFIs
Successes we have had
• Workshops held with our imaging partners, Imaging and Records Management (IRMS) have helped reduce backlog, improve processes and increase staffing
• Our phone consultant, Chaves, received access to ONE and MMIS, so more information can be offered to members calling about status of applications
• Our consultant KPMG finished its initial assessment of Member Services operations, which highlights areas for improvement and opportunities
